Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA)

This module allows you to manage Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA). RMA documents can be created from scratch, from a delivery order or from an incoming email. Product receptions and returning delivery operations of the RMA module are fully integrated with the Receipts and Deliveries Operations of Odoo inventory core module. It also allows you to generate refunds in the same way as Odoo generates it. Besides, you have full integration of the RMA documents in the customer portal.

Configuration

If you want RMAs to be created from incoming emails, you need to:

1. Go to Settings > General Settings.

2. Check ‘External Email Servers’ checkbox under Discuss section.

3. Set an ‘alias domain’ and an incoming server.

4. Go to RMA > Configuration > RMA Team and select a team or create a new one.

5. Go to ‘Email’ tab and set an ‘Email Alias’.

Usage

To use this module, you need to:

1. Go to RMA > Orders and create a new RMA.

2. Select a partner, an invoice address, select a product (or select a picking and a move instead), write a quantity, fill the rest of the form and click on ‘confirm’ button in the status bar.

3. You will see an smart button labeled ‘Receipt’. Click on that button to see the reception operation form.

4. If everything is right, validate the operation and go back to the RMA to see it in a ‘received’ state.

5. Now you are able to generate a refund, generate a delivery order to return to the customer the same product or another product as a replacement, split the RMA by extracting a part of the remaining quantity to another RMA, preview the RMA in the website. All of these operations can be done by clicking on the buttons in the status bar.

   • If you click on ‘Refund’ button, a refund will be created, and it will be accessible via the smart button labeled Refund. The RMA will be set automatically to ‘Refunded’ state when the refund is validated.

   • If you click on ‘Replace’ or ‘Return to customer’ button instead, a popup wizard will guide you to create a Delivery order to the client and this order will be accessible via the smart button labeled Delivery. The RMA will be set automatically to ‘Replaced’ or ‘Returned’ state when the RMA quantity is equal or lower than the quantity in done delivery orders linked to it.

An RMA can also be created from a return of a delivery order:

1. Select a delivery order and click on ‘Return’ button to create a return.

2. Check “Create RMAs” checkbox in the returning wizard, select the RMA stock location and click on ‘Return’ button.

3. An RMA will be created for each product returned in the previous step. Every RMA will be in confirmed state and they will be linked to the returning operation generated previously.

Note: An RMA can also be created from an incoming email (See configuration section).

Known issues / Roadmap

• As soon as the picking is selected, the user should select the move, but perhaps stock.move _rec_name could be improved to better show what the product of that move is.
